The Public Catalogue Foundation was set up in 2003 to catalogue every oil painting in public ownership in the UK. This unique and ambitious project involved visiting over 3,000 collections across the country.
Our illustrated talk, given by Mary Rose Rivett-Carnec of the PCF, offers an insider’s view of the project and highlights the most unusual collections visited, intriguing paintings uncovered and detective work involved.
